Games Convention 08: Hot as a hair dryer

MSI has
decided to make a nice looking system that has four HD 4870 cards which are placed in an acrylic case.

The showcased system isn't anything new as the HD 4870 has been around for a while, but the fun starts when you place your hand near the cards' exhaust. It gets really hot as we are talking about four cards that are packed tight in a small case. As far as we could tell, the heat pushed out of the exhaust could easily be compared to a smaller hair dryer.

That's just the way things go now, powerful cards produce a lot of heat. Here is a picture of that system.
